The Imus City Government had launched Eskwela Kooperatiba last June 2015 thru the effort of Imus City Coop Office headed by former Cooperative Development Authority (CDA) Chair Emmanuel M. Santiaguel. The event was also graced by the present Cooperative Development Authority (CDA) Chair Orlando R. Ravanera together with other CDA personnel.

​

                 Imus City Mayor Emmanuel Maliksi was fully supportive of the joint project of the Cooperative Development Authority and Imus Cooperative.  It envisioned to be replicated in other areas in the country so that the essence of cooperativism can be implanted early in the minds of the youth.

                 To support the programs and objectives of the Eskwela Kooperatiba, our school Malagasang II Elementary School  also enjoined and launched the program. 

​

                 The Damayan sa Cavite Community Multi- purpose Cooperative - DACCO was our guardian laboratory cooperative. The DACCO was located at Anabu II-D, Imus City and it was established on August 19,1999.

​

                   The DACCO had assigned two focal persons from their team to take the responsibility of a guardian lab coop in our school.We had our re- launched last August, 2017 and had signed a Memorandum of Agreement last July 31,2017 because  we had encountered some problems with our previous Guardian Laboratory Coop, the GOLDEN RAYS COOP. The membership started officially last August 9, 2017. Every Wednesday from 9-3pm, Mrs. Eufrosenia P. Gascon and Mrs Marites Rosero from the DACCO report to the school for the membership and collection of deposits from our EK Members. Here are the objectives of this project:

​

• To identify pupils who had saved constantly and  had the highest savings.

• To recognize and reward members per grade level that had reached the biggest savings amount and constantly saves.
